I didn't see anything about tribal chiefs in here. Would a female be called a chief, anyway? They always seem to call them matriarchs in anthropology, whether or not the female in question has children.

Are there any real geologists here, or have they all been driven away by these fools? 

Depends what criteria you need to constitute a 'real geologist'.
